Introduction

In May 2016 and March 2017, Turkiye Sinai Kalkinma Bankasi A.S. (TSKB) issued two sustainability bonds

aimed at financing (i) Direct and Indirect Climate Change Mitigation projects, (ii) Climate Change Adaptation

projects and (iii) Sustainable Infrastructure projects. In May 2021, TSKB engaged Sustainalytics to review the

projects funded through the issued sustainability bonds and provide an assessment as to whether the projects

met the Use of Proceeds criteria and the Reporting commitments outlined in the TSKB Sustainability Bond

Framework.1

Evaluation Criteria

Sustainalytics evaluated the allocation and impact of the projects and assets funded up to December 31st 2020, based on whether the projects and programmes:

Climate Change Adaptation

Climate Change Adaptation Projects

Adaptation-related projects need to demonstrate

that they potentially contribute to reducing

vulnerability to climate change identified in the

project area. Projects should include:

• Description of the context of climate

vulnerability of the project based on an

investigation of the vulnerabilities of the

project’s geographical area to climate

change.

• Analysis of the project’s planned

activities to decipher a positive list of

actions that contribute to reducing

vulnerability, or increase the resilience

of communities, goods or ecosystems

to climate change.

• Provision of a clear link between the

climate vulnerability context and the

specific project activities.

• Evidence that the project does not have

negative impacts in terms of climate

change mitigation (e.g. enhancing

carbon intensive infrastructures).

Issuing Entity’s Responsibility

TSKB is responsible for providing accurate information and documentation relating to the details of the projects that have been funded, including description of projects, amounts allocated, and project impact.

Independence and Quality Control

Sustainalytics, a leading provider of ESG and corporate governance research and ratings to investors, conducted the verification of TSKB’s Sustainability Bond Use of Proceeds. The work undertaken as part of this engagement included collection of documentation from TSKB employees and review of documentation to confirm the conformance with the TSKB Sustainable Finance Framework.

Sustainalytics has relied on the information and the facts presented by TSKB with respect to the Nominated Projects. Sustainalytics is not responsible nor shall it be held liable if any of the opinions, findings, or conclusions it has set forth herein are not correct due to incorrect or incomplete data provided by TSKB.

Sustainalytics made all efforts to ensure the highest quality and rigor during its assessment process and enlisted its Sustainability Bonds Review Committee to provide oversight over the assessment of the review.

Sustainable Infrastructure

Social Infrastructure (Health and Education)

Projects should improve access to public

services for the wider population and promote

inclusiveness. High standards in technology,

health and safety as well as management

processes should be provided in the project

selection. Project location criteria can potentially

promote inclusiveness and the avoidance of

environmental risks. A formal Environmental and

Social Impact Assessment should be carried out

for each project.

Narrative reporting on

the project

Electricity Distribution Networks

Projects should aim at retro-fitting transmission

lines or substations to reduce energy use and/or

technical losses and to avoid electricity cuts.

Projects can also aim at improving existing

systems to facilitate the integration of renewable

energy sources into the grid or Scada System to

improve effectiveness. If possible, projects

selection can also incorporate geographical

aspects and favor projects in areas where

electricity losses are high and a large number of

customers/households would benefit from

modernization. If new transmission systems are

installed, these should facilitate the integration

of renewable energy sources into the grid or

extensions to serve the additional population

growth due to urbanization.

Investment per subscriber, investment per population

Ports The building or modernization of ports should

promote the modal shift of freight and/or

passenger transport from road to waterways and

ensure the resilience of ports to climate change

risks. Eligible investments could include port

integration, renovation and capacity increases

and infrastructure and superstructure

investments into existing ports.

Appendix 1 – Calculation Principles

This document provides information on the data preparation and calculation methodologies of indicators within the scope of the independent assurance in the 2021 Allocation and Impact Reporting of the Türkiye Sınai Kalkınma Bankası (“Bank”). The calculations presented in the report were carried out based on the Company’s internally developed methodology. Information from public sources (e.g. transparency platform of Energy Exchange Istanbul (EXIST), Turkish Statistical Institute), as well as data and reports directly related to the projects have been used in the calculations.

General Reporting Principles

In preparing this guidance document, consideration has been given to following principles:

• Information Preparation – to highlight to users of the information the primary principles of relevance and reliability of information; and

• Information Reporting – to highlight the primary principles of comparability / consistency with other dataincluding prior year and understandability / transparency providing clarity to users.

Please find below the calculation details and methodology by theme for the projects that are financed under the subject Bonds proceeds.

Renewable Energy For projects in this type, the amount of annual GHG emissions reduced/avoided is calculated by using the amount of annual generated electricity and Turkey’s GHG grid emission coefficient which is calculated by the Bank's own methodology which is in line with United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Turkish grid emission factor used the Bank is 0.659 for solar & wind projects, and 0,561 for other projects.

The assumptions for calculating the reduction for each renewable energy efficiency ratio were based on using the Turkey sector average of the last three years of the different renewable energy sources. The estimated amount of annual generated electricity is based on further information requested from project companies and transparency platform of Energy Exchange Istanbul (EXIST). In addition, the calculations for Annual Allocated Amount from Bond / Total Annual GHG Emissions Reduced/Avoided were carried out with Loan Amount Financed with the Proceeds of Bond / (Total Investment Amount * Annual GHG Emissions Reduced/Avoided) formula.

Energy Efficiency For projects in this type, the amount of annual GHG emissions reduced/avoided is calculated by using the amount of annual energy savings and the Turkey’s grid GHG emission coefficient calculated by the Bank's own methodology which is in line with United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Turkish grid emission factor used the Bank is 0.659 for solar & wind projects, and 0,561 for other projects.

The annual improvement in energy efficiency and the amount of CO2 emissions avoided are evaluated through the reduction of energy use in relation to a replacement solution, which serves as the baseline for the calculations. The estimated amount of annual energy savings is based on the savings calculations carried out in the projects and the further information requested from project companies. In addition, the calculations for Annual Allocated Amount from Bond / Total Annual GHG Emissions Reduced/Avoided were carried out with Loan Amount Financed with the Proceeds of Bond / (Total Investment Amount * Annual GHG Emissions Reduced/Avoided) formula.

Resource Efficiency The amount of annual raw material savings (Electricity/Other) are evaluated through the reduction of energy or raw material use in relation to a replacement solution, which serves as the baseline for the calculations. The estimated amount of annual raw material savings is based on the savings calculations carried out in the projects and the further

Page 16: ALLOCATION & IMPACT REPORTING 2021

information requested from project companies. These calculations are made per ton, then the raw material savings made over all produced product during the year. In addition, the calculations for Annual Allocated Amount from Bond / Total Annual Electricity/Other Saved were carried out with Loan Amount Financed with the Proceeds of Bond / (Total Investment Amount * Annual Raw Material Savings) formula.

Electricity Distribution Projects

The number of total subscribers, population of area and total energy distribution are based on further information requested from project companies, the Bank’s follow-up reports, transparency platform of Energy Exchange Istanbul (EXIST) and Turkish Statistical Institute statistics on provinces where electricity distribution is provided by the project companies. In addition, the calculations for Investment/person were carried out with Total Investment Amount / Population of Area formula; and for Investment/subscriber information Total Investment Amount / Total Subscriber formula is used.

Ports The amount of total handling capacity and handling amount of ports are based on further information requested from project companies, the Bank’s follow-up reports and consultant reports.

Health The number of annual in-patient visit and number of annual out-patient visit of hospitals are based on further information requested from project companies, sources of Ministry of Health and consultant reports. While the number of annual in-patient visit shows the number of incoming patients to the hospital on a daily basis, number of annual out-patient visit shows the number of patients who are treated and discharged from hospital on a daily basis and not hospitalized.

Direct and Indirect Climate Change Mitigation

Sustainable Infrastructure

Climate Change Adaptation

Issued the first Green/Sustainable Bond out of Turkey and CEEMEA region in May 2016, TSKB subsequently realized the

globally first Sustainable Tier II Bond issuance in March 2017. TSKB committed to extend loans in accordance with the

Eligibility Criteria as described in the Sustainability Bond Framework which can be found in page 3 of this report. This is the

5th Allocation & Impact Report following 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. In addition to Sustainalytics review, PwC assurance

was obtained as well.

While Turkey has been heavily investing in climate mitigation investments since 2004, especially after the Paris

Agreement, the world has put its concentration mainly in renewable energy and energy and resource efficiency, as

the primary methods in tackling climate change. In transition to a low-carbon economy, for companies to be energy

and resource efficient and intent to develop renewable energies will be of vital importance.

To serve to aim of promoting sustainable growth and sustainable infrastructure improvements in Turkey; TSKB

included the health sector, ports and electricity distribution network investments into the scope.

Detailed information is available in the “TSKB Sustainability Bond Framework Overview and Second Opinion by

Sustainalytics” Report.

All selected projects are previously assessed by TSKB’s own Environmental and Social Risk Evaluation Tool (ERET),

which aligns with the IFC Performance Standards, in order to identify and rate risks associated with clients and

projects. All selected projects are subject to ongoing monitoring and supervision in terms of environmental and

social impacts.

Environmental rating methodology for ERET Model is continuously reviewed by TSKB teams, and the weights of

high risk issues in the calculation process are increased in line with changing requirements, thus paving the way to

mitigate the risky situations if any the risky issues.

Management of Proceeds

Review by Sustainalytics

Assurance by PwC Allocation of the Proceeds (as of 31.12.2020)

TSKB fully disbursed the proceeds of the Green / Sustainable Bond and the Sustainable Basel III Compliant Tier-II Bond. Moreover, TSKB will continue to finance new eligible projects for the redemption amounts out of the subject portfolio, on a best effort basis.

TSKB had a selection of existing projects to support the bond sizes and has aimed to re-finance the outstanding project flow with the use of proceeds of the Bonds.

As a result of the assesment of the subject project in accordance with ERET model, no individual action was required. Until the full utilisation has got completed, the proceeds were held under a designated account, which is tagged within the accounting system for efficient monitoring of the related projects. TSKB has permitted transfers from this account to eligible projects only.

In some cases, the related component of a project supported by the Bonds could be a part of a larger investment. In such cases, the portfolio only finances the eligible portion of these investments.

The monitoring of the projects comprises regular reports by the Bank on project activities and performance throughout the lifetime of investment.

Sustainalytics reviewed the projects funded through proceeds obtained from Green /Sustainable Bond issuance in 2016 and Sustainable Bond issuance in 2017 and provided an assessment as to whether the projects as of 2020 year end met the Use of Proceeds criteria and the Reporting Commitments outlined in the Sustainability Bond Framework provided by Sustainalytics. As per the Conclusion of the Annual Review⁵ issued by Sustainalytics nothing has come to Sustainalytics' attention that causes Sustainalytics to believe that, in all material respects, the reviewed bond projects, funded through proceeds of TSKB's Sustainability Bond, are not in conformance with the Use of Proceeds and Reporting Criteria outlined in the TSKB Sustainability Bond Framework.

TSKB’s sustainable bonds have also been verified by PwC⁶. PwC has concluded that nothing has come to their attention indicating that the selected information for the year ended 31 December 2020 are not prepared in all material respects in accordance with the Company’s Eligibility Criteria as explained in the Report.
